The study section I was set to attend in Bethesda has been postponed, with the SRO simply stating "meeting will be rescheduled for a later date, yet to be determined". I feel for those who submitted grants, their hard work and future plans are now on hold or worst might not be able to continue.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

I was an IRTA fellow, that was my only to stay in Academia. It gave me the opportunity to continue in science and contribute in my own way.For example, plasmids from my lab, shared through @addgene.bsky.social, have been distributed over 2,800 times across 45+ countries. Probably made a difference

Science at its best. Linking ecology, species protection, pharmaceuticals, and human health. Preserving biodiversity sustains ecosystems and human well-being in a delicate interdependent balance. But now all bets are off with the Barbarians in the White House www.nytimes.com/2025/02/16/s...

Hey y’all here’s the Nancy Mace censure against me. Apparently in Congress we are not allowed to call Elon a dick or use figures of speech. Clearly they want to silence me. And pretty rich from someone who terrorizes trans people. I will not back down. www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c...
